F#                      G#m
Back when Cattle Creek used to sing
    B                         F#
Its waters were sweet and its banks were green
    G#m         C#           F#
And sunny days went on forever

F#                 G#m
Me and olʼ Bugler we went wild
  B                   F#
A blue tick hound and redneck child
   G#m              C#          F#
We thought we were birds of a feather

F#                       G#m
Ah the fish would bite, my how theyʼd fight
B                              F#
Weʼd catch them possums in the pale moonlight
    G#m    C#       F#
For Nola, just to please her

F#                   G#m
Buglerʼs voice like Gabrielʼs horn
B                     F#
Up in the cypress and down through the corn
G#m             C#           F#
Golden sounds, yes to treasure

F#               G#m
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
B                          F#
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
    G#m       C#        F#
Say goodbye, say goodbye

F#                 G#m
One day Nola, she brought the news, she said,
B                          F#
I hear young Buglerʼs done paid his dues,
          G#m        C#               F#
Heʼs been hit down, yes on that highway

F#                 G#m
Dry your eyes and stand up straight
B                           F#
Buglerʼs got a place at the pearly gates
    G#m             C#            F#
Say goodbye sugar, ah, say goodbye

F#               G#m
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
B                          F#
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
    G#m       C#        F#
Say goodbye, say goodbye
